First published in 1913, Oswald H. Latter's Bees and Wasps is a fantastic guide to the common varieties of bees and wasps, providing detailed descriptions of their habit, habitat, natural history, anatomy, and much more. This comprehensive handbook contains a wealth of timeless information and is not to be missed by those with an interest in the bee keeping and entomology. Contents include: Introduction , Fossores or Digger-Wasps: Pompilid Section , Fossores or Digger-Wasps: Sphegid Section , Diploptera (double-winged wasps) , Bees (Anthophila, or flower-lovers) , Long-pointed-tongued Bees (Apidae) , The Social-bees , Some Structural Features: The Sting and the 'Tongue' , etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on bee keeping.
